Nenad Cicin-Sain (Kiss the Future | Paramount+)
Description
Director Nenad Cicin-Sain’s latest film “Kiss the Future” covers the incredibly dire yet uplifting stories of underground art and music, which culminated in a live concert by the band U2, during the brutal four-year siege of Sarajevo. Nenad opens up about about his connection to Sarajevo and researching this story (2:30 ), creating a war film first and a concert film second (12:45 ), what made Matt Damon such a great producer (18:30 ), the path to filming interviews in a bombed out former Red Cross building (23:45 ), the transfer of trauma when making a film about genocide (33:00 ), and the perfect metaphor for the role of a director (45:00 ).
